- Police, the law, crime and personal safety in Italy – "Let’s get some preconceptions out of the way first. Organised crime, wolf-whistling and bottom pinching may be an element of life in Italy, but it is a long way from the whole picture. This is a relatively crime-free country; the violent crime that afflicts many US cities, and the anti-social public drunkenness that can be a problem in Britain are both refreshingly absent. Italy suffers from racial stereotyping as much as most, and the Goodfellas image perpetuated by Hollywood bears a large part of the blame. There is organised crime in Italy, from the Sicilian Mafia and Neapolitan Camorra, to high-level corporate crime. What violent crime there is tends to be domestic, rather than directed at tourists. Italy is a safe place to be, though (in the big cities especially) pick-pocketing has been developed into a fine art of which the Artful Dodger would be proud.
